Most of the time, theStacc plans your blogs for you and lays them out across your subscription period. But sometimes you want a burst of extra posts - a seasonal push, a new product launch, or simply because you have room left on your plan and want to use it. That is what Generate More is for. Generate More adds a batch of extra “bonus” blogs to a project. Each one arrives with a real AI-written title, focus keyword, and category - not a blank placeholder - so you can review them and decide when each should publish.

​
What Generate More does

When you ask for more blogs, theStacc does two things in one request:
  1. Creates the bonus blogs. It adds the number you asked for to the project, each in Awaiting date status. They do not land on your calendar with a date yet - they wait for you to choose when each one publishes.
  2. Fills in titles, keywords, and categories. In a single batched AI call, it plans all of the new blogs at once using your business analysis, so each bonus blog gets a real title, a focus keyword, and a category instead of generic “Bonus blog” text.
Because everything is planned in one call, adding ten bonus blogs is about as fast as adding one - it usually takes 10 to 20 seconds. While that is running, keep the dialog open so the request can finish. Nothing is generated yet at this stage. The bonus blogs are planned, but no article body or image is written until you give each one a publish date (see Picking dates below). Until then, they cost you nothing.

​
Where to find it

Generate More lives on your Content SEO dashboard. When the button is available for your project, you will see a Generate more (up to N) button near your blog list, where N is how many more blogs you can add right now. The button is only shown when it can actually do something. It stays hidden when:
  • The project is still loading.
  • Your plan gives unlimited blogs - in that case you generate freely through the normal flow, so a “more” button would have nothing to add.
  • You are on a fixed-allotment plan that already filled its whole period up front (for example, a 30-blog plan where all 30 are already scheduled in your first cycle). Those customers add more blogs by generating the next period’s plan instead.
  • You have no headroom left this period, or the current period has already ended.

​
What you need before it will work

Generate More only works when all of the following are true.

​
An active plan that covers today

The project must have an active subscription for the Content SEO module - not cancelled, not an expired trial. If the plan is no longer active, the request is refused with a message asking you to update your plan or contact support. There must also be a content plan whose date range covers today. Generate More attaches the new bonus blogs to your current content plan. If no plan covers the current date, you will see a message asking you to generate a content plan first. See Content Plans & Keywords for how plans are created. If you collaborate on someone else’s project through a share link or invite, the project owner’s plan and quota are what get checked - not your own account’s.

​
Available headroom

Every project has a blog quota for its current billing period. Headroom is simply how many more blogs you can still add this period:
headroom = your period quota − blogs already scheduled this period
The dialog shows you this directly - for example, “You have 12 of 30 blogs scheduled. Add up to 18 more.” You can request any number from 1 up to your remaining headroom in a single click. If you ask for more than your headroom, the request is rejected and you are pointed toward upgrading your plan for more capacity.

​
Bonus blogs count against your quota

This is the key thing to understand: bonus blogs are not free extras on top of your plan. Each bonus blog you add consumes one slot of your period quota, exactly like a normally planned blog. That is why the dialog caps your request at your remaining headroom. The period here is your subscription’s billing window, not a fixed calendar month. A yearly plan, for example, can pace its blogs across the whole year, so headroom is measured against your actual renewal cycle. One flexible exception: when you pick a publish date for a bonus blog, you may choose a date in a future period. theStacc allows this on purpose - if you have paid through that future period, you can plan ahead into it. Scheduling a bonus blog into a later period frees that slot back up in your current period’s headroom.

​
Limits on how many you can add

There are a few different limits at play, so here is exactly how they fit together:
  • Your headroom is the everyday limit. On a capped plan, you can never add more than your plan’s quota minus what is already scheduled. This is the limit you will hit in normal use.
  • A hard ceiling of 200 blogs per request applies to every request, regardless of plan. This exists mainly to protect unlimited-style plans from accidentally asking for a huge batch in one click. If you request more than 200, you are asked to add 200 or fewer and simply click again for the rest.
  • Fixed-allotment plans (for example, plans that grant 30 blogs per period) are naturally bounded by that allotment through your headroom - there is no separate per-click number for them.
If you drive theStacc through the agent (MCP) integration, note that the generate_more tool there accepts 1 to 10 blogs per call by design, even though the underlying limit is higher. Agents add blogs in smaller, reviewable batches.

​
Picking a publish date

A bonus blog cannot generate until you tell theStacc when it should publish. Right after you add bonus blogs, a Pick a date for your bonus blogs panel appears on your dashboard listing each new blog with its AI-filled title and keyword. To schedule one:
  1. Find the bonus blog in the Awaiting date panel.
  2. Choose a date in the date picker. You can pick today or any future date - past dates are not allowed. (If you are in a timezone where it is already “tomorrow” relative to our servers, the system gently nudges a just-past date forward to today so you are not blocked near midnight.)
  3. Click Set date.
That moves the blog from Awaiting date to To be generated: it drops off the awaiting list, joins your regular content calendar, and becomes eligible to generate on the date you chose - automatically by the scheduler, or whenever you trigger it manually. You do not have to schedule them all at once. Bonus blogs sit safely in Awaiting date for as long as you like, and theStacc never generates one until it has a date. To understand every status a blog can be in, see Blog Status Lifecycle. For how the calendar and scheduled dates drive automatic generation, see Time-Based Scheduling.

​
If titles did not finish generating

Adding the bonus blogs and writing their titles are two separate steps. Occasionally the blogs are created successfully but the batched title-fill step does not complete - for example, the AI call returns nothing, only some of the titles come back, or the project is missing the business analysis snapshot needed to plan titles. When this happens:
  • Your bonus blogs still exist. They were created and counted against your quota - you have not lost them.
  • You will see a clear warning that the bonus blogs were added but title generation didn’t complete, sometimes with a short reason (for example, “Filled 7 of 10 bonus blogs”).
  • Any blog whose title did not fill shows as (Awaiting title…) in the panel.

​
How to recover

You have two paths, and you can use both:
  1. Pick dates now anyway. A missing title does not block scheduling. You can still set a publish date for each bonus blog. When a blog generates, theStacc refreshes its title and brief from your current business info as part of the generation step, so a blank title fills in then.
  2. Re-run the title planning. Use the regenerate-plan flow to fill titles and keywords for the awaiting blogs without waiting for generation. If the failure was caused by a missing business analysis snapshot, re-running your onboarding analysis first (or contacting support) restores what the title planner needs.
If titles repeatedly fail to fill across retries, reach out to support so we can check the project’s analysis data.

​
Quick reference

  • What it adds: N bonus blogs in Awaiting date status, each with an AI-written title, keyword, and category planned in one batched call.
  • Requires: an active Content SEO plan, a content plan covering today, and remaining headroom.
  • Counts against quota: yes - each bonus blog uses one slot of your period quota.
  • Per-request ceiling: up to your headroom, with a hard cap of 200 per request (1 to 10 per call via the agent integration).
  • To generate one: pick a publish date (today or later) to move it from Awaiting date to To be generated.
